17610421 8 known KIR2DL4 alleles were observed in individuals involved in bone marrow transplantation; 3 new alleles, KIR2DL4*00203, *00502, *0080104, differering from known alleles at the nucleotide but not the protein sequence level were also identified
11994457 The single tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM)in the cytoplasmic domain of KIR2DL4 efficiently inhibits natural cytotoxicity responses and recruits SHP-2 protein tyrosine phosphatase (but not SHP-1) to the 2DL4 cytoplasmic domain in NK cells.
15853895 KIR2DL4 alleles may explain the high frequency of this variation in the population.
16366734 KIR2DL4 was constitutively internalized into Rab5-positive compartments in NK cells via dynamin-dependent process. Chemokine secretion induced by KIR2DL4 transfection into 293T cells occurred only with recombinant forms of KIR2DL4 trafficked to endosomes.
15778373 an inhibitory element was identified in the KIR2DL4 promoter and an activating element was found in the KIR3DL3 promoter; AML-2 acts as a repressor of expression of both KIR2DL4 and KIR3DL3 in mature NK cells
15778339 evidence that FcepsilonRI-gamma (gamma) associates with 2DL4 to promote surface expression and provide signal transducing function.
12616484 NK cell receptor, KIR2DL4:HLA-G interaction is not essential for human reproduction.
12794136 The promoter for KIR2DL4 is expressed by all natural killer (NK) cell clones and drives reporter gene expression only in NK cells.
17171757 New insights are provided into the mechanisms by which genetic polymorphism of the KIR2DL4 gene influences its expression.
12055234 KIR2DL4 has the potential for both activating and inhibitory functions.
14700593 Specific amplification of the D0 & D2 domains permit PCR discrimination of KIR2DL4 alleles & their frequencies in various cell lines and human populations.
15670976 report that ILT2 receptor, ILT3 receptor, ILT4 receptor, and KIR2DL4 receptor expression is up-regulated by HLA-G histocompatibility antigen in antigen-presenting cells, natural killer cells, and T cells
15580659 4.5% of the individuals of a Caucasoid population bear a recombinant allele of KIR3DP1, officially designed KIR3DP1*004, that associates tightly with gene duplications of KIR3DP1, KIR2DL4 and KIR3DL1/KIR3DS1
14500636 Appropriate engagement of KIR2DL4 can selectively stimulate NK cells to elicit a strong IFN-gamma response, which has the potential to contribute significant biological benefits, but only in individuals capable of expressing this receptor.
12826375 isolated 3 distinct KIR2DL4 allele clones in each individual with multiple copies of KIR3DL/S1; assumption that unequal crossover event occurred between differing KIR haplotypes resulting in the duplication of the 2DL4, 3DS1/3DL1 genes
12902476 KIR2DL4 transmembrane exon genotype influences both levels of membrane expression and activation of cytotoxic function.
12559621 All genotypes seen included genes for KIR2DL4.
12538663 NK clones express both 2DL4 alleles and either one or both alleles of the clonally restricted KIR 3DL1 and 3DL2 genes.
11489965 Crosslinking of KIR2DL4 with a mAb induces interferon-gamma production, but not cytotoxicity, by resting NK cells in the absence of cytokines.
